Minecraft

Minecraft is a 3D sandbox game with a very low poly graphical style. Everything in the world is made out of boxes that you can destroy, harvest and place. The game has creative and survival modes; In Creative mode you have an infinite supply of blocks which allows you to build whatever your heart desires, in Survival mode you have to work for those blocks, crafting tools to make your life easier. Oh, and monsters will be trying to kill you while you're at it, so you'll have to build bases to survive.

The full game has a more interesting survival-mode where you need to gather resources for building blocks and tools. At night creepy monsters appear and try to kill you, so you'd better build a shelter before dusk. Once this shelter is reasonably secured, you may want to build something bigger like a castle or whatever you can think of.

I can't stop playing this fun sandbox game.
So many ideas of things to create, so little time.
The game is still in Alpha but has a promising future. Frequent updates every few weeks.

I hope when the game reaches Beta that the code gets optimized to allow people with slightly older machines to play with greater render distances to be able to see the sun and moon from my crappy Intel integrated video card on my laptop.

Hopefully in the future other game modes come and many more features and bug fixes for multiplayer.

2015-02-0716:17:05berserk9779Pixel dungeon is really cool, but does it belong here?

2015-02-0716:17:30berserk9779I couldn't run it on linux, it is an android game

2015-02-0716:30:42LeMasberserk9779< I couldn't run it too. It is an android game. So I don't think it belongs to here. Let's wait for an Administrator.

2015-02-0716:35:45LeMasYou need android or an emulator to run this game. And thats why I don't think the game is on the right page. LGDB is for native linux games only.

2015-02-0804:45:03nullzerotechnically there is a desktop version for Pixel Dungeon ([url]) and Shattered Pixel dungeon ([url], with an .jar java executable. I tried both and they worked!

2015-02-0804:46:10nullzerothey werent marked as executalbe, and somehow changing the permissions in Thunar didn't quite work, but running them with "java -jar <filename>" ran both games sucesfully

2015-02-0910:48:58AkienI played pixel dungeon on desktop quite a bit (see nullzero's links), so IMO it deserves to be here.

2015-02-0910:51:01LeMasOk, you are right. I got it too. So it works fine and it deserves to be here. Sorry for my mistake, I just didn't found the desktop download :) Nice game

2015-02-0910:53:04AkienThough sadly the desktop version is stuck at 1.7.2a, even though the android version is already at 1.7.5. But I'm not fluent enough in Java to package the 1.7.5 desktop version from source.
